ABOUT

My name is Margarita Fomenko and I'm a Russian watercolor artist living in the US.

​

When I started my art journey with watercolors, I immediately fell in love with its transparency, softness and glow. Watercolors are a bit unpredictable and that's what makes it such a unique medium to work with.

All of my paintings were inspired by the beautiful landscapes of the areas I lived in or have visited. While some areas are dominated by rolling mountains, bright sunny days, and ocean views; others are influenced by cityscapes with historical buildings and four seasons with their own color mood.

​

My techniques and color palettes keep changing depending on the motif, momentary mood or the subject I paint. I like to have some loose moments in my artwork which leaves some mystery and room for imagination.
